After reading the film's script, Hildur was asked by director Todd Phillips to write some music based on her feelings of the ''Joker'' screenplay, which she was inspired to do so as it resonated with her. She sent Phillips a sample of her composition which included melodies that were very simplistic and monotonic as a means of conflating the film's gritty tone with that of protagonist Arthur Fleck.
